bluespacething | 6 comments I just found this short story online and thought it was pretty interesting. I love the last passage, probably one of my favorites Heinlein passage I've read.

KristenR (klrenn) | 124 comments Ack...that story made my brain hurt!


message 3: by Sandi (new)

Sandi (sandikal) I just printed it out. Does anyone know when it was written?


message 4: by Sandi (new)

Sandi (sandikal) I'm going to vote with Kristen. That story made my brain hurt. I think the story itself was very creative and innovative, even by today's standards. I just found the narrative to be extremely confusing.

NumberLord | 10 comments That was a nice story. If you want a longer version of almost the same story, try "The Man Who Folded Himself" by David Gerrold.

Angie | 342 comments The story was very creative. Sometimes confusing towards the end, but I like the idea.

Awesome and mind boggling!

Sandi (sandikal) I remember now what this story reminds me of. It's "The Time Traveler's Wife" with a whole lot more creepiness worked in. (Although I have to wonder is it's creepier to be your own grandpa or to groom your future wife from childhood.)
